FINISH THY WORK.
Finish thy work; the time is short, The sun is in the west, The night is coming on; till then, Think not of rest.
Yes, finish all thy work, then rest; Till then rest never; The rest prepared for thee by God Is rest forever.
Finish thy work, then wipe thy brow, Ungird thee from thy toil; Take breath, and from each weary limb, Shake off the soil.
Finish thy work, then rest in peace, Life's battle fought and won; And so to thee, thy Master's voice, Shall say well done!
Finish thy work, then take thy harp, Give praise to God above; Sing a new song of endless joy And heavenly love.
Give thanks to Him who held thee up In all thy path below, Who made thee faithful to the end, And crowns thy brow.—Sel.
